About Lifewise

Lifewise

Lifewise is an innovative social agency in Auckland that is committed to finding ways to solve social issues. Rather than focussing on meeting people’s immediate needs, Lifewise gives people the support they need to turn their lives around – for good.

We are most well-known for the Lifewise Big Sleepout – when business, community and political leaders spend a night on the streets.

This annual fundraiser helps Lifewise on its mission to end homelessness in Auckland. Our housing-first approach has been hugely successful at helping vulnerable people get off the streets.

Lifewise works with Kiwis from all across the lifespan – from young children in the care system, to elderly people living in the community. Lifewise is a passionate advocate for cultivating caring communities and challenging injustices in New Zealand.
